Written and Directed by Gary Hawkins:(2008, 95 min., 5.1 Surround, Color/B&W, 1.66:1 Aspect Ratio) Named one of the 13 Essential Southern Documentaries by Oxford American Magazine. The Rough South of Larry Brown weaves interviews of Brown and his wife, Mary Annie, with narrative adaptations of three of his short stories, brought vividly to the screen with performances by Will Patton, Paul Schneider, and Natalie Canerday. The result is a unique and compelling examination of the life and works of the late Oxford, Mississippi, fireman-turned-writer. Newly re-edited and re-mastered to encompass the aftermath of Brown’s death in 2004. Featuring an original score by Vic Chesnutt, The Rough South of Larry Brown is a rich exploration of the writer behind the words and the woman behind the writer.
